Command History Buffer
The last 15 commands are maintained in a command history buffer. You can use
the Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys to scroll through and redisplay commands,
then alter and resubmit a command maintained in the buffer.
More Prompt
The CLI lets you control the flow of text to the screen with a paging command.
If paging is disabled, text is sent to the screen without interruption. If paging is
enabled, only 23 lines of text are displayed at a time. A More prompt is displayed
on line 24 of your screen, and you can do the following:
 To view the next screen of output, press the spacebar.
 To view the next line of output, press the Enter key.
 To return to the command line, press q or any other key besides the spacebar
and Enter key.
The paging command affects only the user who enters the command.
Command Help
You can obtain help when you enter commands by using the following methods:
 To list all commands for a specific level, enter a question mark (?) at the
system prompt:
PDYN#?
 To obtain a list of commands that start with a particular character set, enter an
abbreviated command immediately followed by a question mark:
PDYN#configure sys?
 To list a command’s keywords or arguments, enter a question mark in place of
a keyword or argument on the command line:
PDYN#configure management ?
